This changes the approach used by the provider installer to remember
between runs which selections it has previously made, using the lock file
format implemented in internal/depsfile.
This means that version constraints in the configuration are considered
only for providers we've not seen before or when -upgrade mode is active.
We globally support a -v/-version/--version flag, which triggers the
version subcommand. The recent introduction of JSON output support meant
we started parsing the flags for the first time, but we didn't add flags
for these global version arguments.
This commit adds those flags (but doesn't check them, since they have no
effect on the version command itself). Also adds usage information for
terraform version.
Back when we first introduced provider versioning in Terraform 0.10, we
did the provider version resolution in terraform.NewContext because we
weren't sure yet how exactly our versioning model was going to play out
(whether different versions could be selected per provider configuration,
for example) and because we were building around the limitations of our
existing filesystem-based plugin discovery model.
However, the new installer codepath is new able to do all of the
selections up front during installation, so we don't need such a heavy
inversion of control abstraction to get this done: the command package can
select the exact provider versions and pass their factories directly
to terraform.NewContext as a simple static map.
The result of this commit is that CLI commands other than "init" are now
able to consume the local cache directory and selections produced by the
installation process in "terraform init", passing all of the selected
providers down to the terraform.NewContext function for use in
implementing the main operations.
This commit is just enough to get the providers passing into the
terraform.Context. There's still plenty more to do here, including to
repair all of the tests this change has additionally broken.
We always add an empty line when asking/checking the version. We should only do
that if there is a new version available. While this is purely cosmetic, it
reads better and is consistent with packer.
We encourage users to share the "terraform version" output as part of
filing an issue, but previously it only printed the core Terraform version
and this left provider maintainers with no information about which
_provider_ version an issue relates to.
Here we make a best effort to show versions for providers, though we will
omit some or all of them if either "terraform init" hasn't been run (and
so no providers were selected yet) or if there are other inconsistencies
that would cause Terraform to object on startup and require a re-run of
"terraform init".
